[Bug 2039663] Re: gnome-font-manager hangs on launch, sometimes

 

I think this problem happens systematically when new users fonts have been added.
Maybe an incorrect or too slow update of the fonts database.
But font-manager definetly freezes, not just waits till some update is completed.

I'am using font-manager version 0.8.8.202402200131~ubuntu23.10.1 (on
Ubuntu 23.10)
